Nice chop there Philo. I didn't notice anything different at first until I took another look.

I only spent about 10 minutes on it. Another 20 and you would never know it wasn't real.

I had done some sketching of my own awhile back, I wanted a extended cab bronco. I only spent like 20 seconds doing this but it gets a idea out there. I think it would look kinda sweet, altho the work involved kinda pushed me away

That there would make me a big fan of Broncos. I think it's something that is still missing from Ford's lineup.

I have wanted the same thing. I would like to see that shop done on a prerunner!

Oh look! An attached profile pic of a prerunner bronco.. ;) :lol:

A while back I was speaking to Glen at Complete Fabrication and he was on the hunt for a four door Tahoe to build into a full blown prerunner. I'm not sure if he ever started that project but it would be interesting to see what he comes up with.

I think a Tahoe-sized car with a TTB would be a great prerunner.

That ex-cab setup is what Brian (BDKW1/Partybarge) is building - aside from the "rear" doors. He's got a diesel ex cab and the bronco already. He just needs some free time now.

Is this the build you were talking about at the 500 Steve? Why is he dragging on it? Any pics?

Yeah - it's what I was talking about then. He's been talking about it and planning it for a while, but like me it seems he's slow to act. I think work is a big part of that for him right now. Heck, if he sees this maybe he'll explain.
Nothing has been done as far as I know so the thing is still 2 separate, stock trucks. I think he sent me pics of the ex-cab before but not sure if I still have them. I know I saw it when I went to his house to grab parts last.

It should be sweet though and all I know is I can't wait to see it done.

Is it just me, or does this look like a 102" Bronco?

Yikes, You are correct this pic is way off topic. No stretch is present. Having said that it is a nice Bronco and its pic belongs in ther pic page.

I think someone wanted that pic photoshopped. The background and angles make that one more difficult to do.
